Crashes unfortunately in the nouveau driver, that is out of our control. To circumvent this problem there are multiple solutions: 1. Use the proprietary NVIDIA driver 2. Update to 4.9 (provided through a PPA) which does no longer use this specific code path where the crash occurred, though it is still very likely that the nouveau driver would cause a crash. Can't use NVIDIA proprietary driver, old card using 96.x.x.x, now no longer supported for the latest Xorg. Guess I can try 4.9; can we pass this bug along to the nouveau team? The trace has all required debug symbols, fdo bugtracker with nouveau bugs: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=xf86-video-nouveau You can and should file the bug, but the OpenGL drivers are far from productive state and NV20 is not exactly a common chip nowadays. You may have more success using XRender compositing ("kcmshell4 kwincompositing", last tab) *** Bug 308780 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 309328 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 312288 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 312613 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 313528 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
